Top Stanley Cup Contenders

    ?
    Data points presented in the graph are the average from the odds at all our trusted sportsbooks, removing the bias each book may have towards a certain team due to incoming money, presenting you with a more accurate look at each team's true odds to win the championship.
    • [Oct. 16] The much-hyped Devils are still winless and have dropped out of the top 12 in the Stanley Cup odds (+2700). The Hurricanes jump in (+1600).
    • [Oct. 9] The Capitals’ 2-0-1 start has launched them back into the top ten. An injury to Evgeni Malkin has led to the Penguins (+2600) being the biggest early-season sinkers.
    • [Oct. 3] After briefly falling out of the top 12, Washington is back in at +1800, moving ahead of division rival Carolina (+2000).
    • [Sep. 27] With opening night less than a week away, Vegas (+850) has moved from third to second in the odds, overtaking Toronto (+940).
    • [Aug. 23] Honestly, there’s nothing to see here. It’s a quiet period in the NHL offseason and the odds really haven’t changed. (I guess no one considers Derick Brassard signing with the Islanders  a “difference-maker”.)
    • [Aug. 16] Bettors are down on the Flames’ chances. They started at +1500, well below the main favorites, and have since dropped to +1700. The goaltending concerns have not been ameliorated in the offseason.
    • [Aug. 8] The Panthers (+1867) have bumped the Jets (+2067) out of the top-12.
    • [July 11] The Rangers odds have continued to shorten after landing Artemi Panarin in free agency, now reaching +3300.
    • [July 7] Nashville and Dallas saw the biggest movement among top contenders following the first week of free agency, as the former added Matt Duchene, while the latter signed Joe Pavelski and Corey Perry.
    • [June 26] After taking Jack Hughes #1 overall in the 2019 draft and then trading for PK Subban from Nashville, the Devils are the biggest risers, going from +7000 to +5333, on average.
    •  [June 13] The Tampa Bay Lightning have opened as the favorites to win the 2020 Stanley Cup; the Vegas Golden Knights have been given the best odds among Western Conference teams.

      Data points presented in the graph are the average from the odds at all our trusted sportsbooks, removing the bias each book may have towards a certain team due to incoming money, presenting you with a more accurate look at each team's true odds to win the championship.

      The Eastern Conference had won three straight Stanley Cups before the St Louis Blues won in 2019. Three of the top four contenders for the 2020 Stanley Cup, based on the opening odds, reside in the East – Vegas, Boston, and Toronto are all tied for the second-best odds .

      Atlantic Division

        Data points presented in the graph are the average from the odds at all our trusted sportsbooks, removing the bias each book may have towards a certain team due to incoming money, presenting you with a more accurate look at each team's true odds to win the championship.

        The last time a team from the Atlantic division won the Stanley Cup was the Boston Bruins in 2011. But three of the top four contenders, based on the opening odds, are all from the Atlantic: Tampa Bay, Boston, and Toronto.

        Metropolitan Division

          Data points presented in the graph are the average from the odds at all our trusted sportsbooks, removing the bias each book may have towards a certain team due to incoming money, presenting you with a more accurate look at each team's true odds to win the championship.

          Teams from the Metro division are responsible for the Eastern Conference’s last three Stanley Cups: Washington in 2018 and Pittsburgh in 2016 and 2017. However, it’s the only division that didn’t have a team open in the top eight 2020 Stanley Cup contenders – the Capitals were tied for the ninth-best odds.

          Top Western Conference Contenders

              In 2019, the St Louis Blues brought the cup back to the Western Conference for the first time since 2015. However, they open the 2019-20 season looking up at the Colorado Avalanche on the Stanley Cup odds board.

                  Stats for Teams Searching for Their First Cup

                  Team Years in the NHL Cup Final Appearances Closest They’ve Come
                  Vancouver Canucks 48 3 Game 7 Cup Final losses in both 2011 and 1994. No one in Vancouver will ever forget LaFayette’s post or the ensuing riots.
                  Buffalo Sabres 48 2 Game 6 in 1999. Losing in overtime, no thanks to Brett Hull’s foot in the crease.
                  San Jose Sharks 27 1 Game 6 in 2016. They’ve never been able to shed their label as chokers.
                  Nashville Predators 20 1 Game 6 in 2017. Nashville fans still rue the bad call on Sissons’ go-ahead goal.
                  Ottawa Senators 26 1 Game 5 in 2007. A heartbreaking series for that culminated in the infamous Emery-Phillips mixup. 
                  Vegas Golden Knights 1 1 Game 5 in 2018. Luca Sbisa hands the game to Lars Eller to end the Knights historic run.
                  Florida Panthers 25 1 Swept by Colorado in 1996, despite the year of the rat.
                  Arizona Coyotes 22 0 Lost in 5 games to the LA Kings in 2012. Dustin Brown isn’t admired by Glendale faithful.
                  Winnipeg Jets 24 (1979-1996, 2011-2018) 0 Defeated by the LA Kings in 5 games in 2018. Canada’s best hope was no match for Ryan Reaves’ heroics.
                  Minnesota Wild 18 0 Swept in the 2003 Conference Finals. Despite a disappointing playoff history, they did end Patrick Roy’s career in spectacular fashion.
                  Columbus Blue Jackets 18 0 The Jackets have only won 4 playoff games in their history, 2 in 2014 and 2 in 2018. They probably beat the Caps if not for Lars Eller’s shin, though.

                  The St Louis Blues were a member of this list last season, but scratched their name off here by etching their name onto the Stanley Cup in 2019.
